Rain Bird Female In-Line Valve 3/4 in. 150 psi

This residential and light commercial grade in-line valve replaces Rain Bird and other irrigation valves installed below ground with ¾ in. or 1 in. female threaded inlets and outlets. It can be used with any 24 volt AC irrigation timer. Its unique reverse-flow design helps prevent flooding in the event of internal diaphragm failure, keeping the valve closed and saving water. This valve can be used with all types of watering devices including Rain Bird spray heads and rotors as well as Drip zones when properly installed together with a pressure regulator and filter. Use in-line valves in locations where the use of a pressure vacuum breaker (PVB) or a double-check valve is required by code to protect against backflow. Check your local codes to determine what type of valve is required. After installation and before startup, always the flush system of dirt and debris manually using the valve's external bleed screw. Optionally available equipped with adjustable flow control which helps prevent wasteful misting when water pressure is too high. A top mounted, easy turn flow control knob (CPF models only) allows you to optimize flow to the zone, permitting sprinklers to water at their most efficient rate for more uniform coverage.
